Description RaitaroH 2018-11-10 11:24:17 UTC
SUMMARY

Basically I think would be better to raise the panel first, then above it have the widget come up. For example I activate my calendar a lot, but I also want to see the time. The calendar will cover the dock if it is hidden. Only after the calendar was shown the panel itself comes up but will end up behind the calendar widget window. Having it on top would be bad too, so I suppose having Latte raise first then issue the widget would be best.

I only used the calendar as an example. Same happens with the launcher or anything else.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a dock/panel hidden
2. Activate a widget with the shortcut

Latte shortcut or build in internal applet shortcut?

If we take the menu for example. I right click on it `Configure application launccher` > KeyShorts > I have it set there. If I check in Global shortcuts, under Latte Dock I see the shortcut there just fine: Activate App launcher Widget > Meta+Shift+Z. No alternative, just global.

Here are the same widget on both a dock, issued with activate entry, and in the panel issued with a global shortcut under latte-dock.

Just to be extra clear, on the dock I use META+1 to activate that widget. On the panel I use the global shortcut under latte-dock section set from right click on that widget on the same latte-panel.

yep, exactly...
The Meta+1 triggers the Latte internal code...
the other shortcut is triggering plasma internal code, LAtte can not do anything about it...
